    1. MC MECHEN NARROWS - SEPT. 27TH, 1777
    2. Karen Ingle Langendorfer
    3. I am trying to identify the William INGLE that fought with Capt. William Foreman at Mc Mechen Narrows. Capt. Foreman is listed in "West Virginians in the Revolution" and the "DAR Patriot Index". The Hampshire County GenWeb Page shows: "The Battle of McMechen Narrows on 27 Sep 1777 is not officially considered part of the American Revolution for some reason. The participants, 18 of whom died in battle, listed in a petition for reimbursement dated 2 Nov 1778, included Lt. Anthony Miller Ens. David Wilson Capt. William Forman James Green John Wilson Jacob Pew (Pugh) Isaac Harris Robert McGrew Elisha Shivers Henry Riser Bartholomew Viney John Vincent Solomon Jones WILLIAM INGLE Nathan Forman Abraham Powell Samuel Loury Samuel Johnston Edward Peterson Benjamin Powell Hambleton Forman Of this group of men, 18 are said to have been killed, does anyone know which ones survived or where I might find further informtion. Would their spouse have been eligible for a Widows Pension ? Is this the WILLIAM INGLE that married Mary HANCOCK in 1762 in Botetourt Co., VA.? I would greatly appreciat any help!
